HAS CLOSE GALL
Mil
orable court and asked to tell honor
Superintendent J. W. Gamble ably why he actad up so yesterday.
Struck by Falling GlaM. I e true story which he told -honor-
Prof. J. W. Gamble had an escape able rt)(j.eye untn ne wa8 not rcspon-
from death last evening which was Blbe for hl3 honorable conduct. He
little short of miraculous and which had lnvaje(i Bumiry places of busl-
was quite incomprehensible to those ms8 an(l haif solicited honorable
who witnessed the accident. He was pect8 0f con rrom honorable persons
ngaged In attending the meeting of and when It wa8 not forthcoming
the school board which is held in the he U8ld honorable strong language
First National oanK, tne meeting iaK -
ing place in the banking room, and
he was seated directly beneath the
large, heavy, corrugated glass sky
light. As the evemng was rather
warm, the room had become too warm
for comfort and it was suggested that
the skylight be raised for ventilation.
II. N. Dovey told J. M. Roberts to
pull the cord which elevated the sky
light bo that fresh air could enter the
room. Mr. Roberts did this and then,
hia attention being absorbed In some
matter before the board, he neglect
ed to fasten the cord.
The result was that the heavy sky
light fell with a crash and the force
of the shock was such that the thick,
heavy glass was shivered and fell in
a Bhower of ugly, ragged pieces to
the floor of the room, scattering all
around Prof. Gamble and 'narrowly
escaping decapitating him. And as it
was he escaped with virtually no In
juries receiving but two small cuts on
the hands and badly bruised knee.
One of the cuts was on the fore finger
. of the left hand where a deep cut
to the bone was made by a piece of
the falling glass, the other cut being
a three-cornered Incision in the right
wrist. A large piece of the glass
struck him on the right knee, the
piece falling flat upon the knee and
being sattered into a dozen pieces.
This bruised the knee but . had It
fallen edgewise it would probably
, have badly cut the leg and perhaps
had a serious ending. '
The greatest miracle of the af
fair was that Prof. Gamble was not
struck upon the head, face or neck.
Had a piece of the glass struck him
edgewise on either the head, face or
neck, the probabilities are he would
have been killed.
Prof. Gamble states that the ac
cident happened so quickly that he
did not realize the narrowness of his
escape and he could not understand
why the board members and the spec
tatorB were so badly disturbed over
hia situation. It was only after he
had examined tne pieces of glass
which were strewn about him that he
came to realize what a narroy escape
he had gone through and Just how
easily his life might have been end
' ed. Mr. Roberts this morning was
still much perturbed over the affair
and vows that he will never again
be guilty of absent-mindedness.
The wrecked skylight Is quite an
xpenslve affair as the glass la very
thick and especially manufactured for
skylight purposes. The bank will
take steps to have It replaced Im
mediately.
Depart for Their New Hine.
F. M. Young and wife departed this
morning for Degraff, Minn., near
which place they will make their fu
ture home. Their many friends
throughout eastern Nebraska will be
sorry to learn of their departure but
wish them the greatest of good for
tune and prosperity In their new
home. Mr. and Mrs. Young are with
out exception, two of the finest people
who have ever lived In their vicinity,
and their departure is a distinct loss
, to tne community. The good poople
of the vicinity of Degraff can rest
assured that they have received some
valuable additions to their population
In these excellent people and they can
confidently extend them the warm
hand of friendship. Mr. Young owns
quite a large amount of land In the
vicinity. He has had considerable
experience In that region and be
lieves It to be as good as this. That
his expectations may not be disap
pointed Is the ardent wish of his
many friends.
M ill Ask For a New Trial.
County Attorney Ramsey yesterday
filed a motion for a new trial In the
raso of Cass county vs. Sarpy county
recently tried In the district court at
Pappllllon. He expressed himself
this morning as very hopeful of Ret
ting a new trial and or securing a
change of venue In the matter. From
the character of the testimony and
the evidence he Is firmly of the opin
ion that an unprejudiced Jury would
return a verdict for this county but
he realizes the almost impossible task
rt securing a verdict with a Jury
made up of Sarpy county taxpayers.
The weight of the evidence In the
rase plaintiff favored this county but
the natural prejudice of Sarpy coun
ty Jurors resulted In Its being disre
garded and a verdict being returned
Tor that county. No date haB yet been
set for the argument of the motion.
In Tollre Court.
James Meghan was the mysterious
stranger who arrived In the city yes
terday and accumulated honorable
Jag as told in last evening's Journal.
James was most honorably sober this
a. m., when he was haled before hon-
llrh cf whl(h rorwted unon the
paternity of persons who did not hon
orably cough up coin, and also refer
red at length to their honorable hab
its. He did this with Hon. Barclay
who runs resturant In honorable city,
and Hon. Harclay threw him out into
honorable muddy street, also calling
police. This morning he talked most
honorable to Hon. Mike Archer but it
did him no good and he got honor
able fine of $20 and costs. Hon.
Archer however, agreed to let Hon.
Jim leave town quickly for Kansas
City and he did so, going out on hon
orable train which was headed for
Iowa. He declined to rsy line as he
stated he Just hand honorable money
enough to pay his way over to Paci
fic Junction and he would do so if
honorable court would permit. This
he did and In a few days he will be
pestering the policemen of St. Joe
or some other hole in the world.

Preliminary Steps Taken by the
City Council at a Special
Session Last Night.
The preliminary steps were taken
last evening by the city council for
the commencement of the paving of
the new paving district No. 3 In this
city. The council met in special ses
sion, all the members being present
and it listened to the report of the
committee on streets, alleys and
bridges which had been under ad
visement the petition of the property
owners along Vine street from Fourth
to Seventh Inclusive, Fourth from
Main to Vine, and Fifth from Main to
Vine, asking for the creation of the
new district and that the several
blocks included in it, be paved with
brick upon a concrete base. The
committee had an ordinance ready
for the council creating the new dis
trict which ordinance was satisfac
tory and which met with the appro
val of the council. The council also
authorized the employment of a com
petent engineer who 13 to make an
estimate of the cost of the work and
who will also have the general 6uper-
It-ion of the work.
The question of paying for the
work came up for discussion and it
was agreed that the costs should be
assessed upon the basis of frontage
on the several streets Involved, the
is:pf rate Items chargeable to the sev-
oral property owners being mado pay
able in fifty days. The cost of pav
ing intersection and the street uround
the new postoftlce building, it v.'as
decided would be defrayed by rha is
niie of bonds which would run for
ten years and be taken up in Install
ments. This comprised the principal part
of the work of the session although
there was considerable discussion
among the members of various phases
of the work and the manner In which
it should be done as well as the
methods to be used in paying for it.
The discussions were entirely friend
ly and harmonious; however, and
there was practically no dissention
among the council, the members be
ing in favor of harmonious action
which will hurry the work to comple
tion so that work on the postoffice
may be commenced.
The ordinance which creates the
new paving district will appear In the
Journal tomorrow ( Wednesday )
evening.
